Everyone has memories of the toys they played with and the pastimes they had when they were growing up. This book gives young children access to people's memories alongside photographs to help them build up a picture of the past. From teddy bears and construction toys to dressing up and playing outside young children can explore what has changed and what remains popular.

This book is part of the 'Tell me what you remember' series, which explores changes in living memory through photographs and anecdotes. It is a perfect teaching tool for KS1 or for children up to age
